Provided by J. Kenji López-Alt

Categories     Mains

Time 8h45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 bone-in pork rib chops, preferably blade-end, 1 1/2 inches thick (12 to 16 ounces each)
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
8 sprigs fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Pat pork chops dry with a paper towel. Season pork chops generously on all sides with all of the sugar. Season with salt to taste. Transfer to a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet and refrigerate, uncovered, at least 8 hours and up to 24.
  • The next day, preheat oven to 250°F. Place baking sheet with pork chops in oven and cook until an instant read thermometer inserted into the center of the chops registers 100 to 110°F on for medium-rare, about 30 minutes, or 110 to 120°F for medium, about 35 minutes. To prevent overcooking, start checking temperature 5 to 10 minutes before suggested time. Remove from oven.
  • Heat oil in a large stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Place pork chops in skillet and cook, turning occasionally, until starting to brown, about 1 1/2 minutes. Add butter, shallots, and thyme to skillet. Continue cooking, spooning shallots and thyme on top of chops and basting with butter until golden brown on both sides and well-crusted, about 2 minutes longer. Stack pork chops with tongs, hold them on their sides, and sear the fat caps on the edges until crisp, about a minute. Remove pan from heat, transfer chops to a clean rack set in a rimmed baking sheet, and let rest for 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Just before serving, reheat drippings in pan until smoking. Pour hot drippings over chops. They should sizzle and crisp a bit. Serve immediately.

PAN SEARED PORK CHOPS WITH GLAZED CARROTS



Pan Seared Pork Chops With Glazed Carrots image

These chops are nice and tangy. You could also try this with NY Strip, mouth watering Ribeye, or T-Bone steak. A special thanks to our Zaar friend PaulaG for her help with revising the recipe. :) A great way to ensure tender and moist chops is to soak them in a brine of 1 cup milk to 1/2 Tbs salt for at least 1 hour before using in a recipe.

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 pork chops, 1/2-inch thick, center cut (or steaks)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

2 tablespoons vegetable oil or 2 tablespoons peanut oil

olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • Cut carrots into thin slices and toss them in a bowl with the thyme, olive oil, salt and pepper. Add the carrots to the saute pan with the pork chops.
  • Place the saute pan into the oven for about 10 minutes or until chops are cooked thru.
  • Remove the chops/steaks from the pan onto serving plates, and leaving the carrots, deglaze the pan with the orange juice.
  • Place carrots atop the chops and drizzle with glaze.

PAN-SEARED PORK CHOPS



Pan-Seared Pork Chops image

The secret to the juiciest, most flavorful pork chop is a simple brine with just two ingredients: salt and sugar (okay, maple sugar). Once you've brined, a stepped-up weeknight dinner is just a sear, baste, and bake away.

Provided by Naomi Pomeroy

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup Water
1/4 cup kosher salt, plus 2 tsp
3 tablespoons maple sugar, or granulated sugar
1 1/2 pounds ice cubes, or 3 cups cold water
4 bone-in center-cut pork chops, 1 1/2 inches thick, 8?10 oz each
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 tablespoons olive oil
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, divided
1 bunch fresh thyme sprigs, divided

Steps:

  • Brine: In a medium saucepan, bring water, salt, and maple sugar to a boil over high heat. Stir until dissolved, 5 minutes. Turn off heat and add ice to the concentrated brine, diluting and quickly chilling it so you can use it right away. (Alternately, add 3 cups cold water to the concentrated brine and chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour before using.)
  • Pork Chops: Three hours before you plan to cook the pork chops, place them in a gallon-size zip-top bag set in a bowl (for easy pouring and clean-up), then pour in the brine, making sure the chops are submerged. Seal, and chill in the refrigerator 2 hours.
  • Remove pork chops from bag and discard brine. Dry chops well with paper towels. Allow meat 1 hour to come to room temperature (this will ensure even cooking). Season each chop on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place a rimmed baking sheet in the oven. Meanwhile, heat a skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and heat until rippling but not smoking, 2 minutes. Sear pork chops, 1 at a time, pressing the meat down with a heavy plate or bowl to get an even, golden sear on the bottom, 1-2 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining oil and pork chops. Finish the chops by placing back in the pan, 2 at a time (for a 9-inch skillet). Turn off heat and add 3 tablespoons butter and a sprig of thyme. Tilt the pan and, using a long-handled spoon, baste the chops with the butter. Repeat with remaining chops and butter.
  • Finish by placing all of the pork chops on the preheated baking sheet and roasting in the oven 3-5 minutes. Chops will be done when they're springy to the touch and the thickest part, near the bone, reaches 120 degrees F.
  • Assembly: Transfer chops to a bed of thyme and tent lightly with foil to rest, 5-7 minutes. Remove tent, discard thyme, and serve.

EASY PAN-SEARED PORK CHOPS



Easy Pan-Seared Pork Chops image

Learn how to cook perfectly seared pork chops by following our favorite recipe.

Provided by Cassie Marshall

Categories     Main Course

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 cuts pork chops
Italian herbs for seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp olive oil

Steps:

  • First, dry the pork chops slightly by patting them down with the paper towels and season them on both sides with the italian herbs and the salt and pepper.
  • Place your skillet on the stove over a medium to high heat and allow it to warm up. It might seem like a minor part of the recipe but it is really important not to be impatient with this step as this is what will help you to achieve the beautiful golden brown sear on your meat. Wait until the skillet is practically shimmering with heat and then (and only then) you can add the pork chops to the pan.
  • Completely sear the underside of the pork chops and refrain from moving them or shifting their position once they've been placed in the skillet. After about 3 to 5 minutes (depending on the size of the pork chops they may require a few more on both sides) they should be a nice golden brown color on the side that's face down in the pan so you can flip them over and start to sear the other side.
  • Check if your chops are cooked by piercing them with the meat thermometer until the tip reaches the center and check what temperature it is. Once the meat has reached 135°F you can remove the skillet from the heat.
  • Allow the pork chops to rest for 10 minutes on a plate which will finish off the cooking process at which point the meat should have an internal temperature of around 145℉. Remember though, the size and thickness of the cuts will affect these timings.
